The Schedule .referred to in theze Letters Patent and making of thename.

Be it known that I, HENRY S. HUIDEKOPER, of the city of Meadville, inthe Sta-te of Pennsylvania, have invented a new and improved Machine forHeating Water by Steam; and I do hereby declare that the following is afull and exact description of the same, reference being had to theaccompanying drawings, y and the letters of reference marked thereon.

A is a. steam-pipe from a boiler, or it may be the exhaust-pipe from anengine.

D is a connection between the pipe A, and a con- O is a tube, with awatering-can head at the lower end, which screws into the connection D.(See D' This head may be perforated with two or more holes, as maybedesired.

E is a coldwater pipe from the tank F,with a cock, at G.

B is a water-pipe, with a cock, H.

The operation of my invention is as follows, to wit:

As the heated steam from the exhaust-pipe A passes through the 'tube AK, the cock G is turned, and a spray of waterlet into the pipe A K,atl), from the tank F.

This spray, or stream of water, coming in contact .with the steam,condenses the steam, while the steam heats the water, which, passingalong toward K, runs down th'e'pipe B, and may be drawn oi at-H.

B'yfthis construction, the heat of the exhaust steam, whihiotherwisewould be wasted, may be used to heat vwater for dyeing-plirposes infactories, or for any purpose -where liotwater may be wanted. What Iclaim' as my invention, and desireto secure by Letters Patent of theUnited States, is The construction described, whereby the cold waterfrom a tank or stream' may belet into the exhaustpipe or steam-pipe A K,in ,tw'ol ormorej streams, by the means of the watering-can head 0 D,fo'r the purposes set forth.
